Man, I watched that when I was a kid. Genuinely couldn't sleep for a week. Same with The Blob (1988). Good times, thanks!

Steak so rare, it walks across the counter.

But the static watches back

The actual lives of the cast and crew is scarier than that movie was.

I was mistaken, it was just cast.

But are you not aware? Many of the cast have died during and after filming of these movies. https://www.biography.com/movies-tv/the-poltergeist-curse-its-heeere

I was not aware. Amazing trivia for fans of the movie(s).

[–] Marafon@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

I was not aware but that is neat, thanks for sharing!

[–] mwproductions@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Hopefully they actually use the pool and don't end up getting sucked into something on TV.
